Once upon a time, when the streets of New York were home to beatniks and Bob Dylan, the Concorde was nearly ready to fly and My Fair Lady won Best Picture at the Oscars, Pandora found herself with new freedom after escaping from the housewife that kept her in a cage. She was revelling in her liberty and swooping and soaring all around the city trying to find her way back to the forest. She had just glimpsed the tops of the trees in the distance when all of a sudden she heard the most interesting sound she had ever heard! She looked around her to find that she was in the middle of Greenwich Village and filled with curiosity she stopped her journey home and followed her ears.
After a short flight she found herself outside the window of the loft in a small, rundown apartment building. She peered inside and saw where the wonderful sound was coming from. A young man was sitting on a chair, playing guitar and creating the most astounding blues Pandora had ever heard (the wise owl knew what great blues was, as she had spent some time down by the bayou listening to blues legends like Robert Johnson and Blind Lemon Jefferson in the 1920's and 1930's.)
The window was open so she flew silently inside and perched on a guitar stand. The young man didn't notice her until she hooted in appreciation of his music. He was very, very surprised when he saw an owl sitting in his loft and even more surprised when she spoke to him.
"The music you play is amazing but it would be even more astounding if you combined it with pop music" - said the owl staring at the young guitarist with her big yellow eyes.
The man was absolutely dumbstruck and couldn't manage to say one word. Before he had a chance to recover his composure, Pandora flew away and continued her way home to the forest.
Two years later she witnessed the young man playing at the Montererey International Pop Festival doing exactly as she suggested! Pandora is truly a very wise owl.
To Be Continued....
